GENERAL INFORMATION ON RADIO FREQUENCIES
This device control complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules and with
Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to
the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Note: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment. The term IC before the radio certification number only
signifies that Industry Canada technical specification were met.
The typical operating range for your transmitter is approximately 33 feet
(10 meters). A decrease in operating range could be caused by:
• weather conditions
• nearby radio towers
• structures around the vehicle
• other vehicles parked next to your vehicle.
The radio frequency used by your remote control can also be used by
other short distance radio transmissions (e.g. amateur radios, medical
equipment, wireless headphones, remote controls and alarm systems). If
the frequencies are jammed, you will not be able to use your remote
control. You can lock and unlock the doors with the key.
Note: Make sure your vehicle is locked before leaving it unattended.
Note: If you are in range, the remote control will operate if you press
any button unintentionally.
